Abstract: An insulation system for a refrigerated room or container. The insulation system includes a plurality of panels each panel having an outer side and an inner side surrounding an inner volume. There are PCM tanks disposed within the panels on the inner side, and the PCM tanks are surrounded by a thermally insulating rigid foam substrate and filled with phase change materials. The rigid foam contacts both the inner and outer side of the panels and is a structural member configured to support the PCM tanks to contact the inner side of the insulated panels.

Abstract: A refrigeration system having a low stage and a high stage circuit. Each stage having a compressor, an evaporator or a condenser. The low stage includes a low stage refrigerant comprising R744. The high stage includes a high stage refrigerant having a GWP less than 500. The system further includes a heat exchanger configured to transfer heat from the low stage refrigerant to the high stage refrigerant allowing the circuits to provide cooling in two stages.

Abstract: A refrigeration system having a main circuit including a main compressor thermally coupled with a secondary or subcooling circuit. The main circuit uses a R125/R143A blend as a refrigerant and the subcooling circuit uses an R32 blend. The combined system of differing refrigerants provides increased efficiencies and reduced Global Warming Potential (GWP) over single refrigerant systems for low and medium temperature refrigeration applications.
